Diet: IN the morning, it8217;s papaya, orange juice and tea. On days when I8217;m feeling particularly hungry, I eat eggs. Lunch is typical Bengali fare8212;rice, vegetables, dal and fish or chicken. In the afternoon, I have tea and, sometimes, cucumbers or moori. When I8217;m shooting, I tend to eat quite a bit of junk food and have 10 to 15 glasses of tea. I do not believe in dieting.

You8217;ve been appreciated for small roles in good films. When will you go big?
For me, it8217;s a greater high to do a small role in a good film rather than be the main lead of a B or C grade movie. However,
I8217;ve got two or three offers and something should work out by the year-end.

Exercise: IN Calcutta, I work out at home. My session generally consists of about half an hour of walking or jogging on the treadmill, depending on my energy levels. I also do stomach crunches and some light weights for my arms, along with squats and lunges. Then there8217;s 40 minutes of kickboxing with my personal trainer.
